The 2012 United Skim Tour season came to a close last weekend in Newport Beach CA. Going into the event, 1st and 2nd place were already locked up by Sam Stinnett and Blair Conklin following early contest season domination. It was a good thing too since both riders tweaked their knees in the week of epic swell before the event. Sam chose to sit Oktoberfest out while Blair skimmed, but not at his usual level of aggressiveness. The UST wishes both a speedy recovery.
